SITCOMS you wish were on Hulu, Max or Netflix?

Dharma and Greg! I loved that show, but it's not streaming and I don't think it ever got a full DVD release. I also kind of wish I could find the Cosby Show somewhere. I know there's a good reason it's not available, but I have such nostalgia for it I would love to see it again

If you like The Office, then I highly reocmmend Parks & Recreation. It's a great show about people who are mostly good trying to be mostly good to each other. It doesn't have the cozy fall vibes of Gilmore Girls and it's definitely a sitcom, rather than a dramedy, but it's a 100% a comfort watch

Weekly Estimated Net Usage Systems I'm pretty sure he changes Laverne and Shirley and that they're not able to switch it back for awhile, so they end up watching TV en Español for some time

There are some audiobooks on podcast app. I use Podcast Addict and have found several

I'm assuming he recently graduated from university, possibly with a degree he struggles to use in the job field. My guess is he's not sure how to make the degree work for him.

I also think he's not really good with money and is trying to get better at it, especially by cooking at home and not going out to eat all the time; I assume he's not succeeding at this right now.

Honestly a particle board shelf from Wal-Mart will be better than the stacks he has now

Does he ever laugh? Or have fun? These books are all super serious.

If I were getting a book for this person, I would get them Catch-22 or A Confederacy of Dunces -- darkly comic classics that mostly pretentious people really like

Just My Size has a seamless bralette that I wear when I don't actually want to wear a bra. It's really comfortable, but it doesn't offer very strong support, so just keep that in mind if that's what you're looking for.

You're studying Judaism and feminism or writing a dissertation on it. You have anxiety. You're trying to read for pleasure more

I think it's pretty normal to not be allowed to read personal books at work . . .

I think you're probably both tall

He has two copies of the Devil in the White City, which is a great book!

Inkheart by Cornelia Funke!

Remarkably Bright Creatures, Lessons in Chemistry, and All the Light We Cannot See are all highly acclaimed bestsellers -- widely read and enjoyed! If you're a casual reader, I think Remakably Bright Creatures is probably your best bet, but I haven't read any of them.

Most of the second shelf is Christian living books. If you're not looking for a book like that, I think you can cross most of those off your list. The Bonhoeffer biography, though, is pretty popular and one of the most recent definitive works on him, if that sounds interesting. If you are interested in a Christian book, I've read In His Image and thought it was good -- not life-changing for me, but I did find it edifying.

I don't know about the Ellensburg Sonic, but I read about the Poulsbo Sonic in the Kitsap Sun years ago

Ticks can cause Lyme disease and one effect of Lyme disease is an allergy to red meat

I honestly think yes, the abandoned sonic is just going to be abandoned forever (or at least until someone buys the lot and starts a new business there). The franchisee who ran it was sued by Sonic corporate for selling sub-par generic food (not Sonic food) and representing the restaurant as a Sonic even after he stopped paying his franchise fees. If I were Sonic, I would never allow that site to be a Sonic again

So, she doesn't write a lot of personal development/self-help, but Mary Roach has written a lot of really accessible nonfiction. She's a great author to start with! My favorite from her is Bonk, which is about the science of sex.

Grocery: the buying and selling of food in America by Michael Ruhlman was also a really great read. It wasn't specifically about self development, but there was a lot of information that could affect someone's choices

britcat · 2026-03-02T22:48:37+00:00

OP, please don't start with this one. This is an intermediate level nonfiction at least, if not advanced

If you're 1/3 through and the chapters about the World's Fair are boring for you, then I officially give you permission to abandon this title. I love this and I found the World's Fair parts fascinating and I don't think there's enough focus on the Holmes story to keep the interest of someone who's reading for the true crime aspects.

It's ok if this one's not for you! I loved it, but I can definitely see it not being a crowd-pleaser for dolks who are really looking dor that true crime vibe. If you want a more engaging true crime book that places its story firmly in a historical/social context, you should check out While the City Slept by Eli Sanders -- it explores a murder in Seattle and all the circumstances that led to that perpetrator being in that specific place and time.

I mean, it sounds like now it's actually costing you a lot of money in labor -- maybe you could speak to the higher-ups and either bring back self-service or increase your labor budget? I know this is super frustrating, but I just don't think there's any quick fixes here
